Article Synopsis
- An entomological survey of Aedes mosquitoes began in Abidjan's port in 2009 to investigate yellow fever outbreaks and dengue cases reported among expatriates.
- The survey monitored ovitraps from July 2009 to June 2010, collecting a total of 4,739 mosquitoes, predominantly Aedes species (97%), with Aedes aegypti being the most common (98%).
- Density variations of Aedes aegypti were linked to rainfall, while other species like Ae. albopictus and Ae. angustus were found for the first time during the rainy season.
